I suspect part of that is due to the age of the respondents. PC's are cheaper and fit in student budgets better.PC gots 14 so far.
Yea you have a point there.I suspect part of that is due to the age of the respondents. PC's are cheaper and fit in student budgets better.
I've noticed that in the Apple store....it's older adults making the switch.

Lots of schools require Macs only. Not all but there are some out there. Fewer problems getting connected, as Airport is a breeze to use, and it doesn't run the IT dept at the school ragged with virus issues.Not really. There are more Macs than PCs in most of my lectures.
I'm a Mac at School, PC/Linux at home. I'm hoping to get a MacBook sometime, though.
Scrip kiddies target the larger audience, the PC. And the firewall is built into the Mac. About the only way to get a virus on a Mac is thru email...that's why ClamAV is so popular.But to be clear though Macs get viruses as well, just not as much as a Mac. It really depends on the pc user. I never got a virus in my life.

You could dual boot. Use Boot Camp and install Windows on half of your Mac and have the best of both, besides windows performs better and faster on a Mac than a PC based computer.For me, I have a Mac but I dont really like it. I am a PC gamer, and there is a limited amount of games that run on the Macintosh OS, and I also have a Macbook which means a lot of the better Mac games dont perform very well.
A place to debate everything and anything!
